I was skeptical, but desperate. I had one massive blackhead that would not go away no matter what I tried! I tried so many things, but nothing worked until after a couple months, I used this. Easy to use and not painful at all!

I had the older version model 2740-P and it always worked as it should. I lost it and needed to replace...picked this one up at Ulta as it 'looked' to be the same with just a round barrel for holding instead of the squared from the older version. This is NOT the same at all!!! The flat side used for blackhead removal is rounded on the sides instead of flat as it was. This style slips instead of sliding smoothly across the skin. I will be looking to find the older version model 2740-P as the new one model 2742 is awful!
